The annual general meeting of the Pearly Beach Conservancy will take place on Wednesday 17 December 2014 at 10:00 in the NG Church in Pearly Beach. This is the one event of the year where members and visitors can get to know each other better, can learn more about the Conservancy and its activities, and can submit proposals and inputs on how the Conservancy can improve its operations. The chair’s report and financial report will be tabled, the membership fees need to be determined and the election of the management committee will be dealt with. And then, as usual, a guest speaker has been invited to address the meeting. This year it will be Ernst van Jaarsveld, the fynbos fundi of Kirstenbosch. All interested parties are invited to attend.
